Intermittent torsion: Is a possible explanation, could be confirmed if you twist testicle counterclockwise till painful. Probably intermittent torsion if twisting exactly reproduces pain. Small epididymal cyst might also cause this symptom. Might also be vascular congestion in spermatic vein or varicocele. Suggest you consult urologist & ?Get scrotal us. Good luck.

Here are some ...: Despite being out of the peak age of testicular torsion, the characters of your pain strongly suggests the occurrence of intermittent twisting with spontaneous untwisting of right testis, which is chiefly diagnosed by urologist's clinical judgment, not by testing such as US due to its elusive nature. In many cases, surgical fixation is purposely served the practical need for Rx as well as Dx.
